In a shocking incident in Thailand, a man was attacked by a snake that came out of the bathroom.
The Free Press reports.
He himself spoke about what happened on social media, sharing his terrifying story. According to him, he was sitting quietly in the toilet when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his genital area. As he lowered his hand, the man suddenly realized that a snake had crawled out of the toilet cistern.
Frightened, he grabbed the reptile, trying to figure out how to deal with the situation. However, the snake, which turned out to be no less frightened, bit his hand. Realizing that further delay could lead to further bites, the man decided to act decisively and fought off the snake with the help of a brush.

The arriving rescuers quickly calmed the victim, informing him that the snake turned out to be a python, a non-venomous, but still dangerous creature. Despite the lack of venom, python bites can be quite painful and even dangerous due to the risk of infection. Pythons are large snakes that typically live in tropical forests, but may enter residential areas in search of food or shelter. Unlike venomous snakes, pythons kill their prey by strangling them, wrapping them in coils, and squeezing them to death.
Although pythons rarely attack humans, cases like this show that they can pose a threat, especially if they end up in unexpected places like bathrooms. The man was lucky that the snake did not cause him serious harm and he escaped with only a fright and minor injuries.
